Copyright, 1910, by American Press Asso
ciation.) Clifton clung to the overturned ca
noe, his dripping countenance In close
proximity to another one on the other
side, staring him out ot countenance
with Its blue eyes, dancing and mis
chievous. "Did you save the luncheon basket?"
asked Itose anxiously.
"It saved itself," replied Clifton.
"There goes the pnddle," announced
Rose sweetly. "Can you paddle with
your hands? Jim Wright can, but he's
a regular fish In the water anyway."
"1 have noticed he was something of
a lobster," remarked Clifton, staring
after the vanishing paddle. "As I
can't swim I suppose you'll have the
glory of saving my worthless life. Tou
see, I was liorn and brought up on the
prnlrle, and. except for rock bottomed
streams, there are not many tempta
tions to learn."
Ilose balanced herself gracefully In
the water, her heavy serge skirt weigh
ing her downward. "Let's walk
ashore," she suggested.
Clifton thrust his feet down and felt
bottom. "Oh, I say, you knew it was
shoal water all the time," he protested
hotly.
"Of course I did," retorted Rose Imp
ishly. "That Is why I upset the ca
noe." "You didr
She nodded.
"Why? Just to make a silly ass f
me?" Ills young face burned resent
fully. He hnd been a source of amuse
ment for Rose Burton this past month,
lie wus glud his four weeks' leave of
absence was drawing to a close. He
looked at the disappearing paddle in
an agony of shame that he could not

It Because he could not they must
wait on the shore on the lonely island
until fate sent some bulking, brown
limbed athlete from the hotel, comb

overhand strokes that Clifton yearned
to duplicate, and the paddle would be
brought back or another would be
fetched from the mainland or the am
phibious athlete would paddle with bis

hands or his feet anyway to get Rose
Burton to the hotel In time for the
hop that evening.
At . this point In his meditations
Clifton found himself on- the beach
tugging the canoe high on the sands.
An instant later Rose dripped ashore,
wringing the water from ber skirt and
tossing the wind swept curls from ber
pretty brow.
For a brief Instant she stared at the
green canoe, and then, with a little
contemptuous toss of the head, she
bent down, seized the gunwale and
pushed the light craft buck Into the
water, where It bobbed to and fro
tuntulizlugly out of reach.
"Why did you do that?" demanded
Clifton imputientiy.
"it Is of no use without the puddle,"
remarked Rose carelessly. Then,
peering Into the stranded luncheon
basket she exclaimed: "I declare if
there is a drop of water or anything!
That was a splendid idea of Mug
gie's. putting; enameled cloth under
and around everything, almost as if
she knew we might be upset!"
"Of course she knew I was going
out and took every precaution," mut
tered Clifton, pulling off his sodden
shoes and socks. "But I thought
heard you telling Maggie to wrap the
whole business in enameled cloth bo-
fore you put It In the basket"
"Perhaps you did," soothed Rose as
she gathered dry sticks for a fire and
piled a heap of driftwood about it v. J'
"Where did you get matches?",
manded Clifton, peering .into th0,wUir"
ter snaked compartment of his mateu
safa ' ' ..
"In the basket. Between this fire
and the hot sun we ought to dry off
quickly. Tea. bring up ull the wood
you can find, and there are two blocks
that will serve for seats and that
huge flat stone for a table. Why, we
shall be quite RobiusiJn Crusoes or
Swiss" Family Robinsons, whichever
you choose," she cried piyly.
"I choose to be (he Swiss Family,"
aid Clifton, with rising spirits,
What could be belter than to find
oneself on a lone Island with Rose
Burton for a companion?"
"Why?" asked the girl, pausing in
"Oh pr they "led a ni'i'st ' doinnftUc I

said Rose graciously.
"That suits ny?."
"Well, stop loafing then ifs not

be busy."

finding none and coming back to dis
cover the great bottleful contained in
the basket Clifton waited upon his
companion with all the devotion that
the real Friday might have offered bis
master.
Boiling coffee over the blaze, cook
ing eggs, and toasting bacon were de
lightful tasks to Clifton, the engineer,
whose clever head was filled with de
tails of great bridges and other struc
tures he loved to build. It was pleas
ant indeed to watch Rose Burton flit
ting about the beach barefooted like
the humblest flshermalden, while her
little white shoes toasted before the
fire, and he was privileged to turn
them occasionally that they might
dry evenly.
Most domestic It was, indeed, to sit
opposite to Rose with the table of
rock between them spread with the
dainty lunch he had ordered and she
had attended to preparing at the hotel.
She poured the coffee, and as she
passed him a tin cup filled to the brim
his hand trembled until the hot liquid
spilled on the sands.
I'm a clumsy brute," he growled
impatiently.
We are really on a desert island,
said Rose after a little silence.
'You don't mind?" asked Clifton
rather shyly.
"Oh, no; it will be only for a little
while somebody will see the , boat
will miss us and come over," she said
carelessly.
"Some heroic soul win swim across
from the mainland, I suppose," he said
a little sullenly. "Do you know I
wonder why you've chosen to spoil
your pleasant day by coming with
me,"
Rose blushed hotly. "Ferhaps be
cause I want to give you a good time
before you go home."
"How do you know I haven't bad a
good time?"
"Perhaps you have I was Jesting,"
she said with a wlstfulness he did not
comprehend.
The meal cleared away they sat on
the beach. Rose striving gaily to odd
picturesque horrors to their situntlon.
She made a flagpole from a piece of
spur and flung her handkerchief to
the breeze to attract some passing ves
sel. As there were motorboat races
on the other side of the point every
available craft was in attendance
there.
I'm very sorry it has happened.
Miss Burton, " said Clifton remorse
fully. "I suppose there's no use my
waiting till the tide runs out and then
attempting to walk across the shoals
to the mainland. I heard some of the
chops talking about it the other day."
Don't you try, pleuse," she protest
ed. "It's really dangerous there are
quicksands."
I seem to be quite helpless," he
said, resuming his gloomy inspection
of the empty waters.
"You are," said Rose sharply.
"Eh?"
"And stupid!" she added tearfully.
"Any more?"
"Isn't that enough?"
"It is. I'll get you off this island if
I break my neck in the attempt" said
Clifton loftily, arising and walking
away with as much dignity as the
pricking sands under his bare feet
would permit.
He disappeared in the thicket and
was gone such a long time that Rose
became alarmed. She beard the
sounds of distant hammering and
searched in vuln for him along the
shore or nearby in the woods. In the
depths she dured not venture.
Alone she sat on the sands and wept
bitter, angry tears, until Clifton's voice
close at hand startled her to dashing
them away and confronting him with
Impatient eyes.
"You needn't cry any more," said
Clifton Joyously. "I've made a raft
Look there! I'll get you to the main
land In a Jiffy. And, Say, I forgot to
ask you for some dances tonight."
"I'm not going to the hop," announc
ed Rose coldly.
"I suppose you're all tired out Well,
I don't believe I'll go either. Hops are
stupid things," said Clifton somewhat
dispiritedly. He had been screwing
up courage all day to ask Rose for
those dunces.
"Not as stupid as some people," re
torted Rose pointedly.
, "You mean me?" he asked quietly
She made no reply. Her pretty head
with its ruffled hair was turned toward
the sea, and there was a pathetic droop
to her lips.
"I shall keep away from the hop.
Miss Burton Rose. I didn't know yon

I've . forced myself upon you many
times j'ben you'd rather be alone," be

"I don't wish to go to the mainland,"
said Rose in a muffled tone. "I want
to stay here."
"Why?" He was bewildered with
ber moods.
"Stupid ugaln! Oh. Jack Clifton,
you'll never have another chance. I
knew you wanted and I upset the ca
noe and everything!" She flamed de
fiantly at him as he drew near and
took his chance.
"Stupid!" she whispered again, Kao
softly that, although Clifton heard,. It
ieemed to him the sweetest word ,1a
